Description

VR power boat rowing simulation monitoring control system and method The present invention relates to a VR power boat steering simulation monitoring and control system and method, and more specifically, to a VR power boat steering simulation monitoring and control system and method that provides a learner with virtual reality-based course driving video and environmental information, and allows the learner to improve their power boat steering proficiency by operating a VR device to drive the provided virtual reality course, as well as utilize it for power boat licensing exams or leisure activities. With the recent increase in demand for motorized watercraft, the Water Leisure Safety Act was amended to prevent water leisure accidents, and the revised Act implements a system requiring the acquisition of an operator's license for most motorized watercraft. Here, powered watercraft refer to watercraft equipped with a propulsion system or capable of attaching or detaching a propulsion system at any time, such as motorboats, jet skis, and rubber boats, and for such powered watercraft, if the maximum output on the water is 5 horsepower or more, a boat operator's license, which is a national license issued by the Korea Coast Guard, is required. If we look at the boat operator's license in more detail, it is divided into Class 1 and Class 2 operator's licenses, and if you pass both exams, you obtain the qualification to operate a powered watercraft with a propulsion engine output of 5 horsepower or more. The difference between a Class 1 and a Class 2 pilot's license is that obtaining a Class 1 license grants supervisory authority, allowing an unlicensed passenger to drive while the license holder is on board. In addition to these Class 1 and Class 2 boat operator licenses, there is a yacht license that must be obtained to operate a sailboat with a sail capable of producing more than 5 horsepower. Meanwhile, in order to obtain the aforementioned pilot's license, the user tests their piloting ability through a practical test in addition to a written test. The practical test here evaluates the ability to control a boat in response to fluid water movements, as well as various unexpected situations that may occur on the water, such as docking, accelerating, changing course, meandering, stopping, reversing, and rescue operations. These practical tests require repetitive practice while operating an actual boat; however, this is not easy for general users due to the significant space, time, and cost involved, and there is a problem in that practice cannot be conducted depending on the weather on the day of the test. A prior art proposed to solve these problems is Korean Registered Patent No. 10-1723954, which proposes an "automatic scoring system for water leisure licenses using a boat steering simulator and the same's automatic scoring method." The above prior art allows for virtual operation with behavior similar to that of an actual boat operating in the sea, as motion changes and position changes resulting from the operation of a virtual boat are calculated according to each variable of operation information, hull information, and disturbance information from disturbance-adapting motion data derived from actual measurement data, and enhances realism as the cockpit where the occupant is located moves in three dimensions according to the amount of motion change during virtual operation. In this conventional technology, a passenger sits in a cockpit comprising a seat, a control stick, an instrument panel, and multiple display panels, and practices driving a boat while feeling a sensation similar to being on board through the display panels. However, since the driving course is displayed only through the display panel, areas outside the panel cannot be seen without rotating the joystick, resulting in a lack of realism. In addition, to give the occupant a sense of realism as if they were actually on a boat, the seat on which the occupant is seated is moved, rotated, or vibrated, but this has the problem of requiring high initial installation and maintenance costs.
